The Z8 was developed under the codename "E52" between 1993 and 1999 through the efforts of a design team led by Chris Bangle from 1993 to 1995. The exterior was designed by Henrik Fisker, while the interior was created by Scott Lempert.

Prototypes were spotted during testing between 1996 and 1999. A concept car, named the Z07, was developed as a preview of the Z8 and was unveiled at the Tokyo Motor Show in October 1997.

The engine is positioned behind the front axle to provide the car with a 50/50 weight distribution. The factory-reported acceleration time from 0 to 100 km/h (0 to 62 mph) is 4.7 seconds.

To cement the appeal of the Z8 among collectors, BMW committed to maintaining a stock of spare parts for 50 years. Moreover, due to the limited production volume, all components of the car were either handcrafted or hand-finished, making long-term manufacturer support essential.
